Abstract :
With slide-film interface discussed in this paper we propose a new mobile Web search experience. The interface abolishes fatigue-inducing scrolling while preserving ¿quality¿ summaries of Web search results to improve the efficacy and efficiency of mobile Web search. The evaluation of the approach shows that the proposed interface is superior to the conventional mobile search method in a number of aspects like easy navigation and good viewability of search results and can be its good alternative.
